Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Spending Day 12
Given the relationship between Qin Yi and Sang Yu, she would not take the initiative to come and chat with her. Now that Sang Yu knows about this matter, it only proves that it has spread quite widely.
Liu Yue was furious again. After a good sleep, the anger in her heart had subsided a lot, but Qin Yi rekindled it.
She first opened her phone to check the trending searches, and it was currently still among the top few on the entertainment list.
It's clear that this video was primarily intended to capture Xie Zhengyang, with his profile visible throughout. There was only a fleeting moment of her and Jiang Qinian, and Qin Yi must have recognized her based on her voice.
The comments section below was full of people scolding Xie Zhengyang for being a big shot, mixed with fans manipulating the comments to say that it had nothing to do with Xie Zhengyang himself. Liu Yue refreshed the topic square again and found that the screen was full of negative information about Xie Zhengyang and pictures posted by his fans, which had nothing to do with the elevator drag incident.
Uh...what's going on?
Sang Yu said she didn't know either, but Lin Feiran answered her questions in the group chat.
"Don't worry, this is Xie Zhengyang's fans and haters fighting each other in real time. Now this topic has become a fan circle fight, and it has nothing to do with you."
Liu Yue understood a little bit, so this was Xie Zhengyang's rivals taking advantage of him to deal with him, and the incident of her being dragged was just a raft, and no one actually cared.
But she still didn't understand: "Then why did Qin Yi say that I was the one who caused Xie Zhengyang to be cyberbullied?"
Lin Feiran: "Haha, raw fans are the best at doting on boys. They'll use their rich imaginations to think the whole world is out to harm their brother. This fan group is especially bold, with a big fan base that dares to make up stories, and casual fans dare to believe them."
Sure enough - when Liu Yue found Qin Yi and confronted her face to face, her answer left her dumbfounded.
Qin Yi said: "When this video was first uploaded, it only had a few likes, but it was immediately moved to Douban and marketing accounts and became a black trending topic. It stayed there all day and it didn't stop. There must be someone behind it."
She thought that if Liu Yue just appeared there by chance, the video could not have been captured so clearly.
Therefore, it is very likely that Liu Yue found out about Xie Zhengyang's hotel from Wen Huiyi, and deliberately waited there to collude with others to commit fraud.
If you think about it more deeply, Tencent is indeed targeting Xie Zhengyang. Because Xie Zhengyang did not star in the platform's own drama, the capital wants to retaliate. The Starlight Awards is a Hongmen Banquet!
Liu Yue: ???
Liu Yue: ...
To be honest, she didn't understand the first part, and she was very angry when she heard the second part, but when she heard the end, she only felt sympathy for Qin Yi.
How could a good person suddenly go crazy?
While she's not a fan, she has common sense. How big of a player is Tencent Video in the domestic entertainment industry that they'd even resort to setting up a scheme specifically to target a male actor? Who do you think your brother is?!
"Stop talking." Liu Yue interrupted her. "It's still the Hongmen Banquet. That was the worst time Xiang Yu and Liu Bang were slandered."
Before Qin Yi could say anything else, Liu Yue interrupted her again: "First of all, I did go to Macau, but I didn't go to the Starlight Awards, and Huiyi didn't give me an insider ticket. I'll only say this once, believe it or not, because I don't need to prove anything to you."
"Secondly, I don't care about Xie Zhengyang and Tencent Video. Stop imagining some kind of conspiracy with capital. I'm just an ordinary tourist. The only thing that happened last night was that his staff dragged me and didn't apologize."
"I originally wanted to post a Weibo post to complain about him, but I was busy with other things last night and didn't have time to do it. Seeing him get scolded today, I felt so good."
Liu Yue paused. "I'll post a clarification on WeChat Moments. You'd better do the same. Otherwise, I'll actually post something on that marketing account and include my hotel reservation records and the refund record from St. Regis as an apology, to make this matter even bigger."
"If your fans knew that you were the reason for this, how would you survive in the fan circle?"
This was the solution Lin Feiran taught her. She also emphasized that the last sentence was the key point and must be said.
Because compared to the interests of idols, this is the Achilles' heel of fans.
This trick really works. Although Qin Yi was reluctant, she still chose to cooperate.
Although it was embarrassing to slap herself in the face, Qin Yi was really scared by Liu Yue. She was a little trembling when she said she was going to make a big fuss.
Liu Yue got the result she wanted, but...
After this incident, the seven-year friendship between her and me will probably be over.
It’s no big deal, Liu Yue told herself.
Anyway, many people won’t keep in touch with each other after graduation, she just moved the time forward by half a year.
After knowing each other for seven years, didn't Qin Yi speculate about her with the greatest malice just for a male actor?
After a while, Lin Feiran shared the link to the dormitory group chat.
It was an apology from Xie Zhengyang, but it was sent by his assistant.
After reading the whole article, Liu Yue's core message is "I was the one who acted on my own initiative. My artists are not usually like this", "I'm sorry for causing trouble to everyone", "I'm sorry for occupying public resources"...
Well, he was sorry to Xie Zhengyang, sorry to his fans, sorry to the onlookers, but he only glossed over her, the person involved.
"I'm speechless." Liu Yue typed angrily, "From now on, I won't buy anything endorsed by Xie Zhengyang, and I won't watch any dramas or variety shows featuring him."
Liu Yue didn't really think she was taking her anger out on others. After all, Xie Zhengyang was there at the time. Whether she was being dragged or being taunted by fans, he'd always stayed silent, like he was now, without even a token attempt to stop her.
Even if he is not a beneficiary, he is a silent "vested interest". As a victim, there is nothing wrong with her hating him.
Lin Feiran liked her post in the group, while Wen Huiyi sent a frustrated emoticon.
Liu Yue quickly asked her if this incident had any impact on her work.
Wen Huiyi: "His team is going crazy again. They've already left the event and they're blaming us for not making proper arrangements. This is ridiculous. He's only attending the Starlight Awards once, so why don't I just take care of him until the end of his life?"
Fortunately, Wen Huiyi said that her leader was a good person. Not only did he not push others to take the blame, he also argued with the other side.
Why do you say that the hotel information leak is the organizer’s responsibility? Your team has quite a few members, so check the people around you first!
After hearing this, Liu Yue felt relieved, as long as Wen Huiyi was not implicated.
She asked Qin Yi to help clarify the matter, not wanting Wen Huiyi to be accused of bringing her roommates to events without permission. If word got out to Tencent, it would affect her internship and potential permanent employment.
Liu Yue, Wen Huiyi and Lin Feiran formed a small alliance that "hated Xie Zhengyang". They passionately criticized him in the group and chatted for a long time without realizing it.
Time passed by, and it was not until the evening that Liu Yue realized that she had not written the paper today, and not a single word had been written.
Ah, her plans were disrupted, all because of Xie Zhengyang! Xie Zhengyang had done so much harm!
Liu Yue quickly turned on the computer and began typing with difficulty.
But once she started writing, everything around her became particularly interesting. She played with her phone for a while, then fiddled with something on her desk. After two hours, she had only added 231 words to her paper.
Oh...I'd better go to the library and write it tomorrow.
In fact, she had already researched the information and prepared the questionnaire, and all that was left was the final step of writing it. Liu Yue thought she could finish it in a day at the library, but she won 100,000 yuan tonight.
So, how to spend it?
She doesn't want to go for experience-based services for the time being, and she has no place to put the physical goods she buys unless they are small enough.
It's precious and small in size, isn't that jewelry?
Liu Yue opened Xiaohongshu and searched, with a budget of 100,000 to buy a bracelet... There were quite a lot of recommendations.
She looked around and finally placed an order on Taobao for a rose gold bracelet from the Bulgari Serpenti Viper series. The semi-pave diamond bracelet was just right for her, as a full diamond bracelet would have been too conspicuous.
Well, mainly because it exceeded the mission amount...
This bracelet costs 93,400 yuan, which instantly helped Liu Yue complete the bulk of her spending task for tomorrow, so she can concentrate on writing her paper in the library.
As for the remaining 6,600, I will keep it as a backup. There will still be time to consider how to spend it at 8 o'clock tomorrow night.
Liu Yue set an alarm for 8 a.m. on her Apple Watch. She had never used a smartwatch before, and she felt a pang of panic every time she was woken up by the alarm on her phone.
Now that we have watches, the feeling of waking up through vibration on the wrist is softer, and we don’t have to worry about disturbing others. Technology really changes our lives, and spending money brings happiness.
Before going to bed, Liu Yue asked Sang Yu if he knew when Ke Yan would come back.
The English major had no classes in her senior year. There were five people in her dormitory. Lin Feiran, who had been admitted to graduate school, was traveling around the country. Wen Huiyi was an intern art director at Tencent and often stayed in hotels on business trips.
Sang Yu hadn't been staying in the dorm much lately, and Liu Yue only saw her regularly after New Year's Day. Ke Yan had moved out to live with her boyfriend, but hadn't they broken up again a few days ago?
Although Ke Yan always breaks up with her boyfriend and they reconcile in the end, she will at least come back for a while.
Sang Yu said he didn't know. Besides, the group was so lively today, but Ke Yan hadn't spoken at all.
Liu Yue hesitated, but still sent a message to Ke Yan to ask.
After a while, Ke Yan replied that she would be back tomorrow. She was packing her things and would definitely not move back.
...Liu Yue thought, haven’t you always said this?
But if she could really break up, it would be a good thing, so Liu Yue did not discourage her, but only sent a nodding emoticon.
Before going to bed, she checked her Moments again.
Brother Strong posted a few pictures, all of which are night views of Macau at sea.
There were fireworks, a band, and even drone footage. Liu Yue clicked on the live video, and the sound of the sea breeze accompanied by the ebb and flow of the waves was particularly clear in the night.
She clicked "like", and not long after, Jiang Qinian sent her a message.
He sent a photo of a crescent moon hanging in the dark sky.
Liu Yue asked him, "What phone can take such beautiful photos?"
The reply from the other party was a camera brand, which instantly reminded Liu Yue that she had planned to buy a camera yesterday but hadn't thought about it today.
Well... whenever she decides to buy something in the future, she will add it to her memo. Next time she doesn't know how to spend her money, she can open it and use it as a reference.
Before she knew it, it was already eleven o'clock and she really wanted to go to bed!
In order to prevent herself from checking her phone again, Liu Yue turned it off, placed it on the storage basket beside the bed, and then fell into a deep sleep.
Tomorrow, tomorrow she must finish writing the paper.
